Answer:

The correct option is C) Store B is reducing prices by 5% more than Store A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

Store B is advertising a sale that will reduce prices on all merchandise by one over five.

Convert one over five in percentage as shown below:

\frac{1}{5}=\frac{1}{5}\times{\frac{20}{20}}

\frac{1}{5}=\frac{20}{100}

\frac{1}{5}=20\%

Thus, the store B reduce the prices by 20%.

Store A reduces the prices on all merchandise by 15%.

From the above calculation, it is clear that store B reduces more prices by 5%.

Therefore, the correct option is C) Store B is reducing prices by 5% more than Store A.

The slope for 5 and 2
Yuri [45]

\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}♨

As we know, slope (m) is equal to tan θ for a straight line :

\qquad \tt\dashrightarrow \: m = \tan( \theta)

\qquad \tt\dashrightarrow \: m =  \dfrac{5}{2}

So, we can say that it's a positive constant slope

3(4-2x)=-2x<br> will make brainiest to the first two people that answer correctly with explanation
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 3 into the parenthesis:

3(4 - 2x) = -2x

12 - 6x = -2x

Next, combine your x variables by adding +6x to both side:

12 - 6x = -2x           (-6x and +6x cancel out)

   +6x    +6x

12 = 4x                     (divide 12 by 4 to get x by itself)

/4     /4

x = 3

PLEASE HELP!!! <br> show work if possible!:)
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is y = 2x + 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Original line   y = -(1/2)x + 5

Point (-4, 3)

Process

1.- Get the slope of the new line

- Slope of the original line = -1/2

  If the lines are perpendicular, the slopes must be reciprocal

                       -1/2  reciprocal = 2

2.- Get the equation of the new line

          y - y1 = m(x - x1)

          y - 3 = 2(x + 4)

- Simplification

         y - 3 = 2x + 8

- Solve for y

        y = 2x + 8 + 3

        y = 2x + 11
